Yeah. Nothing feels like being in the spotlight for being an assault victim. Oh, the fame, the glory.

Oh wow we got the KISS army incoming

This is a good comment and a smart rebuttal to some of the points I raised. Just wanted to bump it up toward the top.

1: She bested Kylo Ren only once, after he was emotionally compromised by killing Han, was gutshot by a weapon that sends Stormtroopers flying and was worn out and wounded by his fight against Finn.

He was a pilot of T-16 Skyhoppers in atmosphere firing civilian grade weapons. Not X-Wings in space nailing Proton Torpedo shots blind, while veteran pilots were missing those same shots with targeting computers. Not to mention that he lasted long enough against Vader for the Falcon to rescue him. Hate Rey if you…

And Luke himself commented on her “raw strength”. In addition, it’s been a major part of the narrative that the Force is “awakening” in her whereas people’s ability to use it had been diminished since the prequel days.

Snoke has a line saying as Kylo strengthens in the dark side, his counterpart in the light side would strengthen to meet him. I took that to explain Rey’s strength, she’s linked to Kylo is some way. I’m looking back at the Force Awakens scene where they go into each other’s minds, and I’m starting to think it was more…

If you’re just starting now, you’re still way ahead of Harvey himself ...

The plotting itself in Act 2 was pointless. What Rian Johnson was trying to do (I’m not sure I totally agree with his decisions) was take the usual harebrained Star Wars convoluted Hail Mary hero plan and make it fail. And fail spectacularly.

I’ve never seen it, but there are definitely people who love it.

You know, I’m starting to think that this Harvey Weinstein fellow might be kind of a bad person.

Are we joking about a young woman’s career being destroyed?

Well, it is an unpopular opinion because according to her friends and her text messages, she bragged about the hookup. Why wouldn’t the DA release the information to explain why they didn’t move forward with the case? Without releasing the information the internet, talking heads, opposing fans, etc would be screaming…

So unless she has the shittiest friend in the world, it feels like this was the right decision. If her friend is telling the truth that she expressed happiness about it and she stayed in friendly contact with Anderson after the event, there’s no evidence to support anything happened except for her own testimony. The…

This will surely be a rational discussion thread that can acknowledge that rape may well have happened while also acknowledging that it is impossible to prove guilt on any level if the accuser goes to the police two weeks after the fact, when there is no physical evidence left. That leaves it to the court of public…

yeah those ads are bullshit, mine only grew by about 4

The people who share these stories thinking it’s legitimate news have to be the very same people who click those banner ads because of a promise they can grow their dick by nine inches.

You’re right!

Not Arrow tho. I think the shows are balanced. Even as a liberal myself, I notice the leftist slant of Supergirl, but on Arrow they still use torture as an effective way to get information. Even when they pretended to have an even-handed gun episode, many of the people involved were vigilantes who routinely shoot…
